Thanks teacake, unfortunately anytime I see a JJ lenseflare I'm going to feel used and dirty, and not in the good way

I never understood this discrepency between STAR WARS fantasy and STAR TREK's supposed adherence to scientific truth. STAR TREK relies quite heavily upon fantasy, and always has. Only it has tried to curb it to not make it so apparent and this has never been to advantage. Take VOYAGER's Kes, for example. Obviously designed after Fairies, Elves and other mythical creatures, and yet ... NO butterfly wings! She really needed the wings, BUT............that's taking it "too far" into the Fantasy Realm, apparently. So, they invested the character with a lifespan roughly that of a Virginia Oppossum. What's more, they gave her these unexplained, almost Q-like powers originating out of nowhere -- just to keep her in the realm of scientific probability. STAR TREK and STAR WARS probably should try a cross-over, maybe start that in the "official" comics, if they haven't already. Having R2-D2 flushed out into space has to be the beginning of something for STAR TREK ...

The problem with a crossover is no matter how it ends, some fans are going to be angry their side didn't kick the other's ass. The best you'd get is a stalemate.

I've always thought that Star Wars tech is pretty inferior, so Treknology would stomp all over their stuff. Unless, one or more fairly powerful Force users were in play. They would own the day, I think. Unless unless, a transporter operator got the drop on them and scrambled them all over the place. I'm thinking a Force user *might* be able to hold themselves together if they knew what was happening, but given that there are no transporters in Star Wars, they might get taken out before they knew what hit them.

Moderators: PLEASE don't kill this thread. Move it to Misc or TNZ or something, but this is the funniest shit I've read for quite a while.

Agentcoop: Mr. Lucas, how do you explain that in Star Wars Obi-Wan tells Luke when he met his father he was a great pilot, but in Menace he's just a little boy?BigGeorge: Well, my kids thought...Agentcoop: And how come Obi-Wan tells Luke that Yoda is the Jedi that trains him, but in the movie Liam Neeson trains him?BigGeorge: Um, well, the power of myth...Agentcoop: Isn't it true you knew this was a bad movie, that you wrote it over a weekend but told people you had it written for years?
